All You Need To Know About Eyelash Extensions!

Long and thick eyelashes have always been a symbol of beauty for centuries and will always remain to be the same in future as well. But sadly not every girl is blessed with the long and thick lashes. Thanks to Eyelash extensions, with the help of which now every woman can follow their dream of getting those luscious sparkling eyes anytime they want.

The benefits of using eyelash extensions are actually many. It is indeed a way of giving your lashes a ticker, longer and more natural appearance. In addition, they also make the eyes appear more open and have more mesmerizing look; hence, drawing people's attention to them. For women with dropping eyelids, eyelash extensions will make them look younger and fresher.

What are the most common types of lash extensions?

Since not all people have same length of eyelashes and not all of them they require the same look, there are different varieties of extensions available in the market that may cater to every specific need. While we can’t describe all the limitless varieties of eyelash extensions in just one discussion, here I have described three most common types of them i.e. synthetic, silk and mink. The size of all these 3 varieties of lashes ranges from 6mm to 17mm. So, you can choose the correct length for you depending on your specific preferences.

Can Eyelash extensions ruin the natural lashes?

The biggest myth is that lash extensions ruin your own lashes. They do not. Since the lashes are applied using a specific kind of glue that will neither irritate the eye nor damage the natural lash, you can confidently decide on using them. If applied correctly and properly, they are safe to use and they never ruin the health of your natural lashes.

Can women rub their eyes with eyelash extensions?

Be sure not to rub your eyes or pull on the extensions because doing so, can cause lash loss and even damage to your natural lashes.

Is it okay to also wear mascara?

While there is no need to wear mascara with eyelashes, however, if you still want to use it, be sure to use it only on the tip of the extensions and with a very light hand. A little touch up on the tips will be all enough to give your eyes that “pop” you want. Using mascara at the base of the extensions will get very clumpy.

How to look for a reputable salon or a lash-certified professional?

Because of the sensitive nature of the lashes, finding a professional who is certified to apply the Eyelash extensions is definitely a must. They are skillfully trained to apply the lashes without damaging your natural lashes or more importantly, your eyes.

Just like you do research before relying on a hairstylist, you need to research for a lash-certified beautician also. Read reviews, look at before-and-after photos before finalizing your choice.
